Buildings classified as not-for-profit hospitals, health centers, or HIP centers may be granted an adjustment of the building emissions limits if the building’s owners apply for a percent reduction requirement rather than a cap. Learn more on our Adjustments page.
If the application is received by July 21 2021, the building will be required to reduce carbon emissions 15 percent below 2018 levels for 2024-2029, and 30 percent below 2018 levels for 2030-2034.
Recommendations for achieving emissions reductions from hospitals will be provided by the Local Law 97 Working Groups as their work continues.
